I low-key love that Plasma added the "shake your mouse to enlarge the cursor" feature from macOS. Mostly for the comedic relief when you're frustrated
Does it grow larger the more you shake it? ๐
It actually does lol. You can get it to cover most of the screen
Yeah, if you're bored waiting for something, see how large you can grow your cursor!
There's no artificial cap on the size I think. Not sure how long it'd take to shake the mouse until something finally crashes or overflows.
I think the growth is logorithmic, so there's not a hard cap, but there is a soft cap somewhere. You can always go larger, but you'll approach a limit.
I really like that feature and one that allows you to hold a couple keys and then you move the mouse, it'll draw a line using whatever colour you chose. Both features are super useful in helping me find my cursor.
They also added it to iPadOS 26 (which is still in beta) if you use it with a mouse or trackpad.
